The page with the BW resources, with is used in official BW tours, is extremely outdated.
https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/past-gens-resource-archive-iii.3611616/#post-7465074

The first glaring thing is the VR listed there is the mark 2 when its is in mark 4 atm:
https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/bw-ou-viability-ranking-mk-4.3668699/

Another one is the role compendium, with we have a more atualized version:
https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/bw-role-compendium-v2-0.3662492/

Plz remove the old teams RMT and team showcase since they are from a time where BW was a vastly diferent meta. Instead, use the RoA sample teams. Another issue is the teambuilding compendium with is vastly outdated. Use FNH team building guide:
https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ruins-of-alph-sample-teams.3650478/post-8133791
https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ou-introduction-to-team-building.3664196/

Not in the page but should be added is the BW preview guide, with is fundamental for new players:

In the first set's team options paragraph: "As they eliminate Assault Vest Tapu Bulu in addition to the aforementioned checks." Assault Vest isn't a listed item on Tapu Bulu, would "specially defensive" be better?

Is there any reason why the Choice Band Miasmaw set is Hasty instead of Jolly when it has four physical attacks?

Slowbro-Galar also still has a RU analysis despite being banned two weeks ago.

Hydreigons SM OU Dex entry reads:

"Tornadus-T is an exemplary teammate, as it can annoy Hydreigon checks such as Clefable, Toxapex, and Assault Vest Magearna with Knock Off and chip damage from U turn,"

This dosent make much sense, the u turn part should probably be re phrased.

This analysis also says in the Usage Tips that "Hydreigon is known to be a utiliser of both Choice Specs and Choice Scarf". Choice Specs is mentioned only in Other Options and dismissed by it, and Choice Scarf is nowhere else in the analysis at all. The sentence that mentions this would probably be better off removed completely.

(I know I can do edits now but I don't think I should make a change as big as this without discussion. Ideally someone who knows which of the writers is correct needs to look at this)

If you look closely at the SM Kommo-o OU analysis, it looks like there is some conflict between people that wrote different parts of the page.

In the overview it says that "a specially defensive set can also be run on stall teams". However, in the team options for the specially defensive set it says that it "fits best on bulky offense", and there is no mention of the Wish support that it mentions in the overview this set relies on.

In Other Options running Toxic on the specially defensive set is listed... which is already the only option on one moveslot of the main set.

The Checks and Counters states that "Specially defensive Kommo-o only has Earthquake to hit Fairy-types". However, there is no mention of Earthquake anywhere else in the analysis. It also sounds from reading this section like there is only the specially defensive and Belly Drum sets, with the first set, the Z-move set, not considered - "the offensive set" and "the defensive set" are referred to.

Hi, hopefully this is the right place, but the following page doesn't seem to have any credits despite all the other DPP OU analyses having credits? https://www.smogon.com/dex/dp/pokemon/kakuna/

edit: DPP OU analyses I checked I did not check all of them

Probably that's because it's a joke analysis?

Edit: Ahh ok, so it was less procedural so now its not possible to find the person who wrote every old analysis.

Not necessarily; the credits section got added around 2019 and older analyses got credits manually, with contributors adding them as per forum archives. If an analyse doesn't have credits, then it is likely that there is no forum archive, and it has been done through some other ways.

The beginning of the Air Balloon set's description has some redundant wording. I think it might be better to say something like "Air Balloon Diglett can guarantee the removal of dangerous threats. . .while eluding and trapping opposing Arena Trap users." instead of "Air Balloon Diglett can guarantee the removal of dangerous threats. . .while eluding opposing Arena Trap users with Air Balloon. Air Balloon also allows it to trap opposing Diglett."

That wording would change the meaning of the sentence. Diglett can't trap other opposing Arena Trap users like Trapinch and Trace Porygon, which is why we specified the opposing Diglett matchup, since that is the only Arena Trap user it can beat.

On the in-game guide that lists TM locations in GSC (link: https://www.smogon.com/ingame/guides/gsc_tm_locations ), it is mentioned that TM09 is obtained by importing an Abra from RBY.

While this is the only TM that can only be obtained this way, it is perhaps worth noting that there are two other TMs that can be obtained this way. Specifically, TM33 can be obtained from Krabby, Horsea, Goldeen, and Staryu. And TM43 can be obtained from Nidoran-F and Nidoran-M.
